This book is the first comprehensive study of the subject of spectacular violence in British Romantic literature and print culture. It looks at the impact and influence of a series of catastrophically violent events: the transatlantic slave trade; the American war of Independence and the ’Indian’ problem; the French revolution and the Napoleonic wars; the Irish rebellion of 1798; and a series of riots and ’disturbances’ stretching from the Gordon riots of 1780 to the Reform Bill riots of 1831.
